Is that a Shih-Tzu on your lap?


Yes, that's our Shih-Tzu, Ran-chan. She doesn't understand all the time I spend doing music stuff.

The horns were from a sample pack. In the pack, there were three Ska-punk songs featuring horn parts. All of the phrases were neatly sliced, so it was just a matter of putting the slices I liked into the Logic sampler, and playing around with them until they sounded right. It was the first time I had worked directly with samples -- took a lot of time to choose the sample slices I wanted to use, but after that it was simple.

I wrote the song in 2007 so I considered it a somewhat light-hearted comment on the Bush II administration. If I had written it in 2008, it might have been considerably more bitter.
